Steam Deck9 Reports
Set FPS limit to 30.
Hair textures have bad aliasing problems on any level below high.
Runs well with default settings, but can't quite maintain a consistent 60 FPS and the battery drains very quickly.
I set the FPS limit to 30, medium preset, and AA to high. Hair textures have really bad aliasing problems on anything below high.
Frequent stuttering/slight freezing when entering a new area, but always passes
1300hz GPU clock and 12 TDP
Occasional mini-stutter
Runs at a pretty much locked 40 fps until you break the golden rule, then you get a 5~10 fps drop. The game looks pretty good even with almost all settings set to low. The only one I recommend putting at higher than low/medium is anti-aliasing as setting it to anything lower than higher results in ugly artifacting around characters' hair. The game is very power hungry though so playing docked or at least with the charger plugged in is recommended.
Perfect playable with no tinkering. Battery hungry game does not like being placed in Sleep mode.
Limited framerate to 30fps.
If you resume a game which was placed in Sleep mode, the game's performance will be degraded to the point of unplayability.
The Forgotten City is a very enjoyable experience on Steam Deck. It chews powerfully through the battery, especially near the frequent fire/cauldron in-game scenery. Recommended 30fps lock. Game performance significantly degrades if resumed from Sleep mode. Recommend only playing on a freshly booted game session.
Steam Deck can not quite maintain 60FPS on medium settings but never drops below 30FPS using 30FPS lock at greatly increased battery life.
